Is it possible to have the default state of an ALD from OPEN to CLOSED?

I want it to be active and set an alarm when CLOSED, not OPEN.

Thanks!

I doubt that. I think if you explain why the heck you want to do that then there might be better answer :-)

Ha. So here's my reasoning.
In fusion I've set my BoB switches so that for example when the switch is OPEN its ON. Like the door. When it's open the light is on

I want to have all switches grey when off and orange when on.
It's purely visual.

Can I see the programming code for this? You must check each port on the BoB because I don't know how you can do "If any of the port on the BoB is ON then...."

Anyway, I thought about what you asked and I think you can create a virtual out let which is the revert of your ALD probe.

Sorry for the confusion.. The BoB is not tied to the ALD. I just want the "problem" or activated switch to show orange in fusion (open).
Not a huge issue. Just more of a curious it's for me

The problem here is a failure scenario. You really want an alarm if things end up in a failed state, and things like these almost always fail in an open state.
